Slowly but surely this thread is becoming a great source of fun.
Okay... here are my comments on the quotes... but I think it won’t help. Whatever, it’s your house
I have posted the site plan. We see little possibility to build bigger except to further build over the only sunny area.
It is obvious that you have little room for changes there, because the whole structure is only suitable for the round shelf.
The living room is not really meant to be a chill room. Someone will almost always be sitting there on a laptop, in front of the TV or the music system.
Uh, that is to hang out... chill... relax... surf... kill time or just rest, watch TV, etc.
And sorry, this room doesn’t belong next to the toilet, nor as a passage room.
I don’t understand? I thought the “accusation” was that there are too many rooms on too small a space? Can you explain that to me in more detail?
Separate the remarks for the ground floor and the upper floor... both are bad.
Of course I don’t want any changes!
I want hints on difficulties that I have not yet seen and then weigh them against the advantages I have seen in the current plan. If the difficulties outweigh, changes must be made.
The whole design is a difficulty.
Sorry for the harsh words, but this chit-chat of the last days about knee walls etc. is just a distraction, because the thing is so full of inconsistencies that you can’t find any starting point at all.
I mean, you’ve gotten enough suggestions for problems, but YOU EXCUSE AND DEFEND EVERY MISTAKE.
So far I have personally justified and still see more advantages (except for the basement e.g.)
Exactly. Because everyone else doesn’t take their shoes off, doesn’t live properly, but now you’re doing everything better with your cramped hallway, the upper floor one far too small.
I have to smile a bit: we have recently shown you all less hallway on the ground floor, but more functional than yours.
It can’t be the hope of commenting here either that the blind will be spontaneously led to the light.
Maybe you should look over your own edge and check out other discussions and successful designs? Talking to a wall or dealing with a thread starter who is so mega convinced to reinvent the house is not easy!
I did not expect nor did I express the wish that MY floor plan would please a single person here. My question was about “unnoticed” and “overlooked” – this list from you, for example, helps me a lot!
Almost everything. Actually. Almost everything visible has already been mentioned.
If you take measurements into account, there is even more criticism.
So, I still see quite a lot, but it’s not worth discussing the details if the basics are already wrong.
For me the bedroom has the function of fitting a 1.40 m bed with small storage areas, one socket, and a closet. That could even be an interior room without windows for me. I go in the dark and often enough come out in the dark. That’s the least important room for me.
Then that’s the room where, according to you, one relaxes, e.g. with a good book?!
1.40... do you want to live in the house at old age, too?
If I weren’t married, I would save this one first and install a quickly hangable hammock in the living room or sleep in a tent in the garden
Looks like that too: unconventional, if needed, just leave out the bedroom
IF a tenant who is not family moves in downstairs there will definitely be a sound/room separation between living room and basement! At the simplest case a soundproofed "inter-ceiling construction" – in the worst case the basement stairs can surely be removed and the stairs rebuilt on the ground floor by steel beam or support?!
Nonsense!
Sorry for my words, but the game is up,
This is something that should not be built. On top of that, the resale value drops during construction.
You are digging yourself in!
And if an architect came up with this nonsense, then he should give up his license.
Still, it is your house – the decision to reflect on it and/or to toss the design in the bin or not is up to you.
